Hannah G. Clancy is an associate at Birch Horton Bittner & Cherot whose primary practice is in the firm’s municipal practice group. Clancy works with elected officials, municipal staff, and boards to develop legally sound solutions that advance public objectives. She also facilitates commercial transactions and represents private and municipal clients in civil litigation. Her practice includes municipal law, land use, civil litigation, and corporate, business, and commercial matters in Alaska.

Clancy earned a J.D. from the University of Wyoming College of Law in 2024 and a B.A. from Rocky Mountain College in 2020, graduating summa cum laude. In law school, she served on the Wyoming Law Review editorial board and gained experience with the U.S. District Court for the District of Wyoming, legal services clinics, private firms, and the University of Wyoming Rural Law Center. She also received the school’s Outstanding Law Student award from the National Association of Women Lawyers.

Before joining Birch Horton Bittner & Cherot, Clancy’s Alaska practice included insurance defense, commercial real estate, business formation, employment law, and healthcare matters. Her current municipal work requires coordination with public officials and boards on issues that may involve local regulation, land use, transactions, governance, and litigation. This combination of public and private sector matters helps her evaluate how legal requirements affect government decision-making, commercial objectives, and the procedural demands of contested civil cases.

Hannah G. Clancy is admitted in Alaska and before the U.S. District Court for the District of Alaska. Clancy’s academic record and early practice experience reflect a strong emphasis on research, writing, public service, and litigation. She helps municipal and private clients translate legal rules into workable decisions, prepare for disputes when necessary, and structure transactions or public actions with attention to enforceability, process, and the practical objectives of the people and organizations involved.
